Agreed, and it's not too surprising. The FCC doesn't regulate
microwave oven leakage, and the FDA's standard limits leakage for an
installed microwave oven to 5 milliwatts per cm^2 at a distance of 5
cm from the surface. I've read that a fairly high percentage of older
microwave ovens leak more than the standard would allow.

That level could add up pretty quickly... a watt or more of leakage
from an older microwave oven would not surprise me very much. A
15-milliwatt Part 15 device can't compete.
